Unconscious Incarnations: Psychoanalytic and Philosophical Perspectives on the Body

Bys: John Panteleimon Manoussakis and David M. Goodman

Book Overview

Unconscious Incarnations considers the status of the body in psychoanalytic theory and practice, bringing Freud and Lacan into conversation with continental philosophy to explore the heterogeneity of embodied life. By doing so, the body is no longer merely an object of scientific inquiry but also a lived body, a source of excessive intuition and affectivity, and a raw animality distinct from mere materiality.
